Upcoming Video Games: News, Trailers and More

[madvanced]

The 14th was a great day for JRPG fans. 

'Star Ocean: Integrity and Faithfulness' is going to be released for the PS3 and PS4 without any set release date as of yet. Kotaku's article

 

Dungeon Travelers 2 is going to be localised by Atlus and will feature 16 girl companions and will boast 30+ sub-classes, the game will also feature the godly gift of Japanese audio. Atlus' game page

 

All I can say is rejoice.
 

 

 

P.S. - You better thank me for Star Ocean, I requested it on the Squenix survey. I'm totes important so it's obvious that my choice was the deciding factor.

[Turnip Sensei]

How in the hell are you suppose to play Ys on touch screen? Even easy mode would be a nightmare with even slightly unresponsive controls.

Amnesia: Memories coming West this August.

 

"Idea Factory International is bringing Amnesia: Memories for PS Vita to North America and Europe via download in August 2015, the publisher announced at its inaugural press event this evening."

 

Well, this is quite a surprise. Looks like Otome fans have something to look forward to.

This actually looks interesting.  I'm glad Atlus is bringing this over.

List is updated BTW.

That song made me buy vita and Persona 4 Golden. I wasn't sure if it was good investment or not, but after I saw the trailer with Time to Make History as background music I was convinced.

Um. I... don't know a gentle or polite way to put this but... goodness the main heroine has a derpy face doesn't she? That's some next-gen character design there guys. Looks like something you would make using a character creator from a cheap Korean MMO.

A.K.A I think the Star Ocean animation is some of the creepiest things I've ever seen. 

[Kosakyun]

That's some ultra-uguu face. I think it would look stupid on some occasions.

 

Edit: THE WITCH IS HOT

I was thinking this one.

I have no idea how Star Ocean went from having really decent character design (1 and 2) to having good sprites but horrible 3d (3) to... just having bad design in general (4).

Hyperdimension neptunia re;birth 2 May 2015 on steam.

Hyperdimension neptunia re;birth 3 Fall 2015 on Steam

 

MOOOOOOOORE NEPNEP!!

[Kosakyun]

I fucking need to fix my Vita by that time. ;_;

[Cyrillej1]

I don't think the graphics look that bad, I'm actually looking forward to the differences.   It looks pretty cute to me, still.  Though, the thought of play-doh created characters does sort of come to mind when looking at the new Star Ocean game. W/e, as long as it has great story, gameplay, and characters, I'm in~!  I loved most of the past Star Ocean games, so I'm excited for it.

Another game with cute girls: http://gematsu.com/2015/04/lord-of-magna-dated-north-america-europe

I like Charlotte, or Lottie. I'm a sucker for pink haired girls.

 

Also, milking the franchise even more: http://gematsu.com/2015/04/hyperdimension-war-nept

I'm interested in that due to the fact that its the Rune Factory people. 

[Stray Cat]

If I do it won't be for a while.  Record Breaker comes out in 2 weeks and I'll be playing that for a long time.

Sayonara UmiharaKawase - Spring 2015 PSVita

 

I played a little of the Omega Quintet jp demo, and the gameplay didn't really seem that fun to me.

I'm kinda tempted to try Order 1886 game :0 it looks cool. But I need to finish my other games first~.

The only 2015 listed upcoming games I'd be interested in so far are: Amnesia, Danganronpa Another Episode, Until Dawn, and Tales of Zesteria. Maybe also Project Xzone2.  I may not be able to get/play them all, but definitely prioritizing Danganronpa AE

This year, I am planning to save up and import Danganronpa 2, 999, VLR Vita (US version because dub), Danganronpa AE and Persona 4 Golden.

If ZE3 gets announced, it is going to the top of the pile (preferably the limited edition).

I am planning to buy few other games.Ace Attorney Trilogy for my 3DS, Hotline Miami 2 and Dustforce for Vita, Alien:Isolation and Wolfenstein TNO for PC. In that order.
